Testimonials
“My brain has started to be okay with making mistakes. You explain things so holistically and you make my brain want to do them. I didn’t do the self-deprecating inside responses, I cried instead, I let my body sleep and simply existed…I’m communicating my boundaries and expressing the comfort I need. I’m coming out of a functional freeze. I can now evoke the happiness of recognizing that I am on my team.
Danielle is so good at her job. I think I haven’t been seeing her for two months now, but regardless of how little time I had - the impact that I felt throughout my life is extraordinary. Reparenting is something that I still take from her and I am using in my daily life. And honestly - I haven’t hated, okay…. not necessarily hated, but disliked or even looked at something and said “hmm, this doesn’t resonate with me”. Just because the way that she processes how people work with trauma, I think in essence, I cannot recommend this person enough.” - LT
"I highly recommend Danielle's services. She helped me understand my past, how the soft animal that is my body works, and by sharing eye-opening strategies to recover, have hope for a healthy future. I'm an intellectual, logical person who loves talking out my problems but this was not a supplement to talk therapy, it was just as critical to understanding my "perplexing" (yet appropriate) behavior from a nervous system perspective in order to fully heal. I also found her so soothing - her aura alone made my nervous system feel safe. I'm so glad I found her!" - CS
“It felt like the tool I needed in the moment to opt out of functional freeze and instead ride the emotion wave. I still feel like I can go about my day, now. And that’s new for a situation like this. Omg Danielle… I can function again?! This is a time to celebrate. I think I’m cured. Like not of everything. But of the functional freeze. I feel like I can’t go back to functional freeze anymore, like it’s gone…
You know, if I’d known a Danielle in 2015, I wouldn’t have spent two years being unable to work. That was a lot more expensive than a coaching fee. And that’s not even taking into account the sheer amount of suffering. You are so very gifted. I knew on that Eventbrite call there were answers that only you had.
I never imagined I’d get results like this though. I’m literally crying. Which is not something that functional freeze allows.” - AL
“It almost feels too easy like and obviously I’m not gonna say oh I am healed, it’s a miracle! Yet, I am for some reason. My brain wanted to say I’m solved, but I don’t believe that. I don’t think I’m a problem that needs to be solved. I just wanna learn new ways to manage the way I am in the system that isn’t quite built for me, but what I was trying to say it feels too easy like the last…
It really has only been a week, has felt like such a massive change for me but at the same time, it’s like I haven’t done that much to change or like that’s what I feel like, but you’re right. I’m trying to tell myself. I’m super proud of this! I can feel the change. I can almost feel the universe change and respond to me.” - SR
“I had the honour of being able to work with Danielle. I didn’t even realize how stuck in functional freeze I was or how I was still intellectualizing my emotions. Dani helped me get back in touch with my physical body and what my emotions would make me feel instead of the story behind them. I’m trusting myself and my decisions more, I’m listening to what my body wants, and as a result I feel like I’m flowing through life with much more ease. Ive returned to university after almost 4 years away to finish my degree, I procrastinate less, my executive dysfunction isn’t in control of my life anymore, and I find myself surprised that peace and gratitude has become my center pillar.” - SR
